    This team is absolutely moronic but it starts at the top. No accountability.

    Hey at least we saved Jody some money this year so it’s actually a successful season.

    Lately, Tatum has become that kind of player. Looking VERY good as an All Star in this league.

    The concept of the Blazer offense seems to be to make the defense work as little as possible.

    I would agree with that.
    Only saying I remember watching Kemba Walker take over the NCAA tourney...
    Not the same, but he has some "dogg" in him.

    What's funny is all year we keep Dame, or in this case CJ, in the whole 1st and 3rd quarters. What ends up happening is the opposing team closes the quarter strong and builds their lead further (or takes the lead if they're down). Then Stotts is forced to not take them out in the 4th or give them very little rest. Even when we had a healthier roster it was this way.

    The guy screening Hassan would’ve fouled out by now if moving screens were being called.

    Its the WCF’s thats how they beat them too. Draymond gets the board runs full speed the Blazers jog back he gets a layup/ Dunk or passes to a wide open shooter.

    Leadership is failing in this game. By veterans and our coaching staff.

    Wenyen makes defensive plays every game. Stotts doesn’t reward the guys that play hard.

    Maybe? Weve seen him have really good stretches before, Im just not sure he’s actually good enough in a playoff series to that against Milwaukee or Toronto.

    Ant has become very CJ-ish in his Iso's.

    Right now Whiteside and Swanigan has to be the 2 slowest center in this getting back on defense.

    What are you talking about? He's in the game. He's getting minutes. What reward do you want him to get?
